Definitions
- This invention falls within the field of enzymatic processes for the synthesis of estolides to be used as lubricants. More specifically, this invention is a process for enzymatic synthesis of estolides through the reaction between stearic acid and methyl ricinoleate, in solvent free media using a specific type of immobilized lipase as catalyst.
- Base oils are the principal constituents in the formulation of lubricating oils and are classified as mineral or synthetic. Mineral oils are obtained by distilling and refining petroleum, whereas synthetics are produced by chemical reactions using various raw materials, in an effort to obtain products with properties suitable to the function of lubricants. Mixtures of base oils and additives are normally used to adjust some properties such as viscosity and stability to oxidation and to prevent the formation of deposits.
- Estolides constitute a new class of lubricants derived from vegetable oils with excellent low temperature properties, the pour point being one of the best indicators of such properties.
- Estolides is the generic name used to define linear oligomers of polyesters of fatty acids in which the carboxyl group of a fatty acid binds to the unsaturation site of another fatty acid or in which the hydroxyl of a hydroxylated fatty acid is esterified by the carboxyl group of another fatty acid molecule.
- These lubricants have been synthesized by polymerizing fatty acids under high temperatures or using mineral acid catalysis.
- US patent 6,316,649 describes a process for synthesizing esters of estolides through the reaction between oleic acid and saturated fatty acids with 6 to 18 carbon atoms and subsequent reaction with 2-ethylhexanol.
- Perchloric acid was used as the catalyst, with a reaction temperature ranging from 45° C to 60 ° C.
- the esters of the estolides obtained exhibited good oxidation stability, a high viscosity index, viscosity compatible with mineral base oils, as well as a low pour point and good degradability.
- U.S. patent 6,018,063 refers to a family of estolides derived from oleic acid, produced by acid catalysis, and characterized by its superior properties when used as lubricants, such as viscosity (at 40 °C) between 20 cSt and 32 cSt, viscosity index of 150, and pour point of between-30°C and -21°C, among others.
- viscosity at 40 °C
- Viscosity index of 150 a viscosity index of 150
- pour point between-30°C and -21°C
- JP patent 1016591 describes the synthesis of estolides by means of the hydrolysis of hydroxylated fatty acids present in castor oil, more specifically the ricinoleic acid.
- the hydrolysis reaction and formation of estolide from castor oil was done using 2% to 15% (m/m) of lipase in 30% to 65% (m/m) of castor oil dispersed in an aqueous solution to obtain estolide conversion greater than 90%.
- the lipases used are those capable of hydrolyzing ⁇ positions of the fatty acids or a lipase capable of partially hydrolyzing glycerides.
- JP patent 5211878 describes a procedure for obtaining high reaction rates and a high degree of polymerization of estolides, which are free of dark color, odor and impurities.
- the estolides were synthesized through ricinoleic acid condensation reactions, using immobilized lipase as the catalyst, by controlling the amount of water in the reaction medium.
- condensation of ricinoleic acid molecules has the disadvantage of resulting in a hygroscopic product.
- the estolides it is thus also difficult to maintain the properties of the product for each production.
- Bodalo et al in Biochemical Engineering Journal, vol. 39, no. 3, pages 450-456 , refer to the synthesis of estolides from ricinoleic acid catalyzed by immobilized lipase in a solvent-free reaction. Similar processes are described by Yoshida et al, in JAOCS, vol. 74, no. 2, pages 261-267 , and by Bodalo et al, in Biochemical Engineering Journal, vol. 44, no. 2-3, pages 214-219 .
- This invention provides a method for synthesizing estolides through a catalyzed esterification reaction using specific lipases immobilized on macroporous acrylic resins in a solvent-free system as detailed in claim 1.
- the synthesis of estolides using lipases prevents the degradation of reagents and products, and reduces secondary reactions given that these enzymes act in mild reaction conditions and have high specificity.
- the use of immobilized lipases permits their later reuse.
- the purification processes are simpler, since fewer components are present in the reaction medium at the end of the reaction. The elimination of solvents in the production of estolides considerably reduces costs and minimizes environmental impact.
- This invention is a process for enzymatic synthesis of estolides, comprising the reaction between stearic acid and methyl ricinoleate in a solvent-free medium, using an immobilized lipase as the catalyst, wherein the lipase, which is non-specific for the 1,3-positions of a triglyceride, is a recombinant lipase from Candida antarctica , expressed in Apergillus Niger, and is immobilized on macroporous acrylic resins.
- This invention is an enzymatic process for synthesizing estolides in a solvent-free medium, the objective of which is to selectively produce lubricants generating a product with a high degree of purity and reduced waste production.
- the solvent-free system (SLS) combines the specificity of biological catalysis with reduced operating costs due to lower energy consumption during the reaction and treatment of effluents.
- this invention is a process for synthesizing estolides, via enzymatic catalysis, in a solvent-free medium using an immobilized lipase as the catalyst, wherein the lipase, which is non-specific for the 1,3-positions of a triglyceride, is a recombinant lipase from Candida antarctica , expressed in Apergillus Niger, and is immobilized on macroporous acrylic resins, with said process including the following steps:
- This process utilizes stearic acid from natural sources, particularly vegetable oils and animal fats.
- Vegetable oil sources include: cotton seed, coconut, palm, castor, rapeseed, soybean, sunflower seed, and olive oils. Particular mention should be made of cocoa butter and shea butter, which have a high stearic acid content, ranging from 28% to 45%.
- sources include milk fat (5% to 15% stearic acid), pig fat (approximately 10% stearic acid), and bovine tallow with 15% to 30% stearic acid.
- methyl ricinoleate useful for this invention are the byproducts of acid transesterification and esterification of castor oil (castor bean biodiesel), as castor oil is roughly 90% made up of ricinoleic acid.
- the reaction between stearic acid and methyl ricinoleate is an esterification / condensation reaction, the efficiency of the reaction being dependent on the type and concentration of lipase used, the temperature of the reaction medium and the amount of water in the medium.
- lipases with specificity for hydrolysis of the 1, 3-positions of the triglyceride molecules do not act on the hydroxyl group of hydroxylated fatty acids, which are inefficient in the synthesis of estolides derived from these acids.
- non-specific lipases for the 1, 3-positions are effective in catalyzing this type of reaction.
- Lipases obtained from genetically-modified microorganisms are used.
- the lipase is a recombinant lipase from Candida antarctica , expressed in Aspergillus Niger.
- the lipase marketed by the Novozymes company as Novozyme 435 can be used.
- the immobilized lipases useful for the process of this invention are not specific for the 1, 3-positions, and are immobilized on macroporous acrylic resins, especially in concentrations greater than 10,000 U/g.
- estolides Apart from selecting the lipase, another variable to be observed in the enzymatic synthesis of estolides is the influence of temperature on the enzymatic reaction, as a result of decreased enzyme stability due to thermal deactivation.
- the ideal working temperature for lipase varies from 70°C to 90°C. At temperatures below 70°C, low consumption of fatty acid molecules is observed, the conversion to estolides being less than 30%.
- the lipase concentration suitable for the process ranges from 6% to 14% (m/m) relative to the total concentration of reagents. In lipase concentrations below 6% (m/m), the conversion is low, generally below 30%. Enzyme concentrations above 14% (m/m) contain an agglomeration of particles of immobilized lipase, reducing the active sites available for reaction, causing a reduction in yield and conversion.
- the esterification reaction generates water as a byproduct; however, its presence in the reaction medium adversely affects conversion rates, since when the water content in the reaction mixture increases, the reaction reaches an equilibrium and stops. Therefore, the removal of water produced during the reaction is extremely important for the conversion to be high, above 40%.
- the removal of water from the reaction medium can be done by means of an adsorbent in concentrations between 4% and 7% (m/m).
- an adsorbent in concentrations between 4% and 7% (m/m).
- the following may be cited among the adsorbents useful for this invention: alumina, silica gel, zeolites, preferably molecular sieves, or the application of a 60 Pa (0.6 mbar) vacuum.
- this invention is an enzymatic process, the objective of which is the synthesis of estolides from the reaction between stearic acid and methyl ricinoleate, using immobilized lipases as the catalyst.
- the lipase can be recovered by vacuum filtration, using n-hexane as a solvent.
- methyl ricinoleate in condensation reactions with stearic acid, catalyzed by lipases, creates a biodegradable lubricant of high added value, which expands the application scope of castor oil biodiesel and can lead to its commercially viable production.
- the following example illustrates the effect of the presence of water in the reaction medium in the conversion of the reaction, through the action of an agent for removing water, in this case a molecular sieve.
- stearic acid P.A. purity grade
- Novozyme 435 commercial immobilized lipase
- 937.5 g of methyl ricinoleate obtained through the transesterification of castor oil
- 500 mg from a 3A molecular sieve 500 mg from a 3A molecular sieve
- the following example illustrates the effect of the presence of water in the reaction medium on the conversion of the reaction by removal of water through application of a vacuum.
- the properties of the final product were evaluated to characterize the biolubricant obtained.
- the biolubricant obtained showed good viscosity properties, a low pour point and an absence of corrosiveness, as compared to a base oil and a commercial lubricant (Lubrax Unitractor), as shown in Table 2.
